Topic: What do you have in common with Boba Fett?

Some things that I have in common with him are: never talking to myself, being a cleaning freak, liking helmets and armor (mine are for fencing), owning a carbine rifle (Argentinian Mauser, 1891), and (usually) being brief in speech (unlike my writing). Also, I read a lot of adventure fiction (his childhood pursuit). Mentally, I approach his willpower (stubborness) and craftiness (PBEM Combat Mission challenge extended).

If I had the money to do it, I'd create a working model of his armor and weaponry, just in case this world runs to riot.

My '77 Landcruiser is dark green with as much battle damage as Fett's armor.

I do not talk very much. I plan on being a Fugitive Recovery Agent (which is the reason I became a fan of him). I can be ruthless, obssesive, paranoid, moral, and megalomaniacal at times. I do not really have any friends, nor do I want any.

Re: What do you have in common with Boba Fett?

I'm crafty, and tend to use unconventional methods of action and problem solving.At work, I keep my agenda to myself, and use the weaknesses of others in the organization to achieve my ends. (which I think is the norm for office politics)I never break my word, though I may fufill an oath to the letter in a way that is unexpected.Avid reader.I know how to use a variety of common and uncommon weapons. I'm a firm believer in retribution and justice.I'm an insane detail person, and manic about time schedules, deadlines, and completing jobs.I'm a perfectionist.I like Hello Kitty.Oh, and until the corporate name changes, I am in the employ of (quite litteraly) the Empire.

Re: What do you have in common with Boba Fett?

I can only think of two things. We both enjoy reading. And we're both paranoid.

Other than that we couldn't be more different. If Fett and I were to ever cross paths (reality not being an issue.) he'd probably find me annoying. Not because I'd nerd-gasm at him. (Lets just assume I'd never heard of him.) Our personalities would just clash.

Re: What do you have in common with Boba Fett?

I was raised the only child of a single parent. Brought up to be independant (but something backfired--lol)

I can be very intellectually manipulative when I want to be.

Someone has to push me hard to get me to lose my temper (as my husband has been doing the past couple of days).

I'm well, I WAS quiet--voted quietest girl of my senior class, but that has changed.

I can be mechanically-minded. I have taken classes like auto tech, and my grandfather had me using tools at a young age.

I can be rather touchy about my vehicles.

I used to be a bit of a loner--didn't really have a "group", I kinda floated around. I still have my friends, but I like my "ME" time.

My friends saw me as a perfectionist (as a typical Virgo), but really, I'm not quite. Not all the time anyway.

Someone once joked with me in high school (this was well before Columbine) that I had a list of people in the works and that I would come back with a rifle in hand...he said "it's always the quiet ones, you know". He was just trying to get a rise out of me.

The only weapons I own are a few knives. I have shot a gun before, a rifle, and I liked it--would love to take up something like trap shooting.

*However, I do not care much for Hello Kitty* LOL(This is a cool topic!)

LOl i thought you'd know that.

He doesn't share everthing with me. On this point (of Hello Kitty), he knows where I stand on it (I want to sick my Black Kitten of the Sith, "Blaggard", on Hello Kitty), so he's likely avoiding a massive conflict with me. It's not that he can't kick my ***, it's that he doesn't want to (on account of our friendship or something).
